*Three amp* round pin sockets? I don't recall those.
Often used in more recent times on lighting circuits, so you can plug
floor-standing lights in and have them controlled from the light
switches.
Roland, Nigel has it right. They are in fact rated at 2 amps.

My boarding school was an old building with lots of different socket
types. I'm sure I saw those round pins in 2A, 3A, 5A, and 15A sizes as
well as the modern 13A ones.
